Grapple Gaming

Network

Hosted here, and only here.

Hosted in Johannesburg, on hardware we own. What runs on it today, what we have not bought yet, and no ping figure until we have measured one on the node you would actually be on.

On the node today

38 games already run on the hardware we have.

Not a roadmap. These are tested and on sale, at the player counts each plan states, out of 112 in the catalogue.

What we run on

One class today. One we have not bought.

Budget

Shared fair use CPU, sized for vanilla and lightly modded private servers.

On sale now

38

Tested, on sale, and running at the player counts each plan states.

Performance

Higher clock hardware for the games that fall over on shared CPU.

Waiting on hardware

74

In beta or planned. This is the only reason they are not on sale.

Where it is

One country. No region picker.

A twelve location map is what you build when the local market is an afterthought. South African players have spent years on European servers because nobody bothered. There is nothing to pick here, on purpose.

Questions

The hardware questions answered straight.

What does shared fair use CPU actually mean?
You are not buying dedicated cores. Plans are sized for vanilla and light modded servers. If your server starts affecting other people on the node we will talk to you about a bigger plan.
Where are the servers?
South Africa. That is the whole point. Local players get local latency instead of routing to Europe.
What ping should I expect?
We have not measured it on the hardware you would actually be on, so there is no number on this site. Every host in this market quotes one without saying from where or on whose line. Ours goes up when it is real.
Can I run mods and plugins?
Yes, and the plan sizes assume you will. Heavy modpacks are the exception: they need more CPU than shared fair use gives you, which is why the larger sizes exist and why some games are not on sale yet.
Why is Rust or ARK not listed as available?
Because we cannot run them well yet. Those need performance hardware we have not bought. Listing them and delivering a bad server helps nobody.
How many games can I actually order today?
Thirty eight of the hundred and twelve in the catalogue are tested and on sale. Forty three are in beta while we benchmark them, and thirty one are waiting on hardware. Every game page states which it is.
Why does Minecraft have one page for Java and Bedrock?
Because it is one server you choose how to run, not two products. The page covers both editions and the plan sizes are the same either way.
What does it cost?
From R59 a month for one gigabyte up to R429 for twelve, in rands, monthly. No setup fee, no minimum term, and no currency conversion at the end.
Can I order right now?
Not yet. The customer portal where ordering and billing live is still being set up, so nothing on this site takes payment. The prices are what it will cost when it opens.
How do I get hold of you?
Email [email protected]. That reaches a person rather than a queue. A Discord is still being set up and will appear on the contact page when it exists.
